At the 2017 NAB Show in Las Vegas, Harmonic (NASDAQ:HLIT) will showcase its software-based media processing solutions, with a focus on OTT and cloud-based solutions for broadcast, live and on-demand OTT video.
"With ATSC 3.0 on the horizon and an explosion in OTT offerings, today's broadcasters and service providers need to work faster and smarter as they address growing consumer demand for crystal-clear video and a wider range of content across all screens, including personalized, live and on-demand," said Bart Spriester, senior vice president, video products, at Harmonic. "As a leading provider of cloud-native solutions and the industry leader in video compression, Harmonic is looking forward to bringing the latest media processing innovations in these technologies, along with real-world success stories from leading broadcasters and service providers, to the 2017 NAB Show."
